Covid 19 protection

Hi.

So in contrast to recent speculation in the media it appears that drugs such as ARB's and Ace inhibitors may provide some protection against coronavirus.

Thanks for this reassuring link...I'll keep taking the pills.Actually the alternative..high bp stops me wavering anyway.😁

Yeah I agree, I posted the link in the hope that it would provide some degree of reassurance to the people on these medications, myself included.

I noticed that Losartan(ARB) is getting trialled at a University in the states for Covid19 but not here in the UK, as there had been previous reports that it was of benefit in preventing the worst symptoms. I've been on it for 3 years and my Consultant certainly thinks I should continue with it.

That's music to my ears, cjbroon! Whoever would have thought that one of the pills I hate taking could have a silver lining!!
